Piscataquis Community Elementary School hosts Winter Carnival

Students in Guilford took some time to get out of their classrooms and get active.

Piscataquis Community Elementary School hosted its Winter Carnival.

Activities such as sliding down a hill, making snow art and snowshoeing kept the kids pretty occupied.

The carnival is part of the winter kid games, a program to get kids outside and enjoying what winter has to offer.

Anita Wright, Principal, "It's a great opportunity for the kids to connect with the outdoors and the heritage that's so much a part of where they live. "

This is the second time the school has participated in the games.

The Winter Kids Challenge ends Friday.
